Mark 7 : 21

Greek employs double prepositional phrase (ἔσωθεν ... ἐκ τῆς καρδίας) for emphasis; Peshitta mirrors this with ܡܢ ܠܓܘ ... ܡܢ ܠܒܐ; Vulgate collapses to single prepositional phrase (Ab intus ... de corde), omitting the redundancy while preserving the sense of interior origin.

Greek places the subject (οἱ διαλογισμοὶ οἱ κακοί) with double article and attributive adjective before the verb; Peshitta uses construct state (ܡܚܫܒܬܐ ܒܝܫܬܐ) in natural Syriac order; Vulgate inverts to place the adjective (malæ) before the noun (cogitationes), creating Latin emphasis on the moral quality.

Peshitta inserts ܓܘܪܐ ('adultery') as a distinct vice before ܙܢܝܘܬܐ ('fornication'), creating a semantic distinction absent in the Greek πορνεῖαι (which covers both). The Vulgate similarly distinguishes adulteria from fornicationes, suggesting a shared exegetical tradition that parses Greek πορνεία into two categories.

Greek lists πορνεῖαι as a single vice; Vulgate expands to two terms (adulteria, fornicationes), distinguishing marital infidelity from general sexual immorality. Peshitta ܙܢܝܘܬܐ corresponds to the broader Greek sense but follows its own insertion of ܓܘܪܐ, aligning functionally with the Vulgate's dual categorization.

Greek κλοπαί ('thefts') and Peshitta ܓܢܒܘܬܐ are present; Vulgate omits this vice entirely from the catalogue, possibly due to textual variation in the Latin manuscript tradition or deliberate abbreviation.
